When democrat Joe Biden was installed four years ago, Lady Gaga sang the national anthem, Jennifer Lopez performed "America the beautiful" and Garth Brooks interpreted "Amazing grace".
Donald Trump has had a harder time attracting star artists, but it is now clear that country singer Carrie Underwood will perform at his presidential inauguration next week.
She will also perform "America the beautiful" and other artists participating are country singer Lee Greenwood and opera singer Christopher Macchio.
Village People have repeatedly over the years asked Donald Trump to stop using the band's hits "Macho man" and "YMCA" at various performances. But now the disco band has changed its mind and will perform at several events connected to the inauguration.
On the band's Facebook page, it writes that their "preferred candidate" did not win the election, but that it is "time to bring the country together with music".
Former "Idol" winner Underwood will perform shortly before Trump takes the oath at the Capitol on January 20, according to a copy of the inauguration program obtained by the AP news agency.
Greenwood will perform when Trump goes out to take the oath and Macchio will perform the national anthem at the end of the inauguration program.
